(Bonus Idea) Tribute To Father

The Donald W. Reynolds Community Center at 501 South Broadway in Poteau, Okla., will host Marty Haggard on Saturday, July 8, for a show that starts at 7 p.m.

Marty Haggard has had his own accomplished career, performing country music for 40 years, but about seven years ago, his love for his dad and his music inspired him to begin paying tribute to him in concert.
